you know what?

it's september! and so, my self inflicted "post-a-day september" can officially commence! anyone else shaking their heads in disbelief that i can actually post every day? oh, all of you...? hmm, well, i admit, i'm a bit dubious myself but i will brush off the doubt and head into this month optimistic about my new posting habit.

i have a lot to do this month. i am in full spring cleaning mode, inspired to organise, tidy, throw out, sell on and grow. our house is only half done but i've decided i may as well make the most of the half that is. our yard is also a bit of a write off as it will change immensely once the house is extended and done but finally, with mae enjoying some outdoor time, i feel inspired to fill in some of our dirt beds that just breed weeds (which shane's lovely dad comes around to pull out every couple of months. let's save the old guy some work, no?). i've planted some heirloom tomato seeds, curled parsley, garlic and regular chives, red onions, variegated and regular thyme, golden and regular oregano, three kinds of mint and five kinds of basil. i already have a pretty handy and well stocked herb garden but it should triple in size over the next couple of months which i'm thrilled about. yum.

go leslie! a post a day is ambitious but i know you're up to the challenge :)p.s. the word verification i'm being asked to enter looks like a profanity! quite funny :) ok i've lost it.. mirka woke me up at 5:45am.

I love to hear your thoughts, thanks so much for taking the time to comment! If you have a question to ask, I will answer it here (and by email as well, if I can track down your email address). I would love to reply to every single comment but until Blogger makes it easier to reply by email, please know that I am so happy you stopped by : )
